This re-imagining of the classic gauntlet is different than the N64 and Gamecube titles, but it still stands well on its own. A great arcade stile romp, Gauntlet: Slayer Edition is simple in its mechanics but it works hard to explore them and give multiple build options for each class. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because the levels get more complex and difficult, but you stop being able to upgrade you core abilities fairly early on. I like the challenge, but more room for upgrades would have been nice in my opinion.
